    Hi Mark

    Yes lots of people think of evolution in terms of struggle but
    is this adequate? I think more in terms of the vast sea
    of the possible, or variety as Darwin calls it in relation
    to evolution, the miracle of evolution is that from the vast
    possibilities that exist something of value is created,
    quality is chosen over dead ends, levels are created
    and transcended, the molecule that can transport oxygen
    is selected over that which cannot, millions of cells are able
    to work together to produce the higher level reality of
    the multi-cellular organism. To flux and disorder, DQ
    brings order. Selection via struggle is possible only after
    that which is good is already present to choose between.
